Is Page of Swords a yes or a no?

This card does not answer cleanly either way. It points to something unresolved, unseen or still in motion, which in practice usually means "not yet" rather than "no".

The Page of Swords is curiosity with a blade: sharp, questioning, watchful and not yet skilled.

The one who asks the question everybody else was avoiding, sometimes usefully and sometimes not.

He stands on a windswept ridge holding a sword upright in both hands, looking sideways rather than ahead. Clouds race and birds scatter. The wind in this card is the strongest in the deck, and Smith used weather consistently across Swords to signal mental turbulence. He is braced for something he has not identified.

Yes/no readings are the most popular use of tarot and the one it is worst suited to. A seventy-eight card deck built to describe nuance is being asked for one bit of information, and most of what it knows is discarded in the process.

A more useful version of the same draw: read Page of Swords as what shape this takes, not whether it happens. Curiosity, new ideas, information gathering. Ask the questions.

Vigilance and a fast mind, applied to something new. The card favours the beginner's question, which is frequently the one that exposes what everybody else has stopped examining.

As a person he is alert, talkative and unproven: quick rather than wise, and aware of the difference less often than he should be.

Reversed, the lean weakens or inverts. Gossip, cynicism, all talk. Scattered thinking.

Or information used carelessly: sharing what should have been held, which is this Page's characteristic damage and is usually done without malice.

The cynicism reading is worth separating from scepticism. Scepticism asks for evidence; cynicism has decided in advance, and one of them is a form of thinking.
